Answer 1

Make sure that the file is in your {Project}.iOS build and that the file is exactly called "GoogleService-Info.plist". Also be sure that you set the build action of the "GoogleService-Info.plist" file to: BundleResource

For a full tutorial take a look at: https://components.xamarin.com/gettingstarted/firebaseioscloudmessaging (this is a link for cloud messages but the first part is the same for all firebase services)

Answer 2

In Visual Studio for Windows ,

Include the GoogleService-Info.plist file in the IOs project root,

Then right click on the GoogleService-Info.plist file and go to Properties . Under Properties, set BundleResource for Build Action ,

That's all you have to do 😉. Now just clean the project, delete the bin and obj directories, then run the project 😊

Answer 3

1. Open "GoogleService-Info.plist" and change any <true></true> or <false></false> to <true /> and <false />
2. Reopen the xamarin solution
3. It should work now, worked for me.

Answer 4

在编辑器中打开“GoogleService-Info.plist”并将任何或更改为并重新打开xamarin解决方案它现在可以工作

Answer 5

对我来说（除了这里已经提到的其他问题）问题是 GoogleService-Info.plist 在属性中勾选了“iOS 优化”，导致构建后出现不可读的乱码。
